Tony Silveira teaches on the 7 functions of the blood in a paralel with the spiritual meaning of the blood of Jesus.

For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.1 Peter 1:18-19

Jewish Tradition credits Gabriel with inspiring the Prophet Moses to write either Genesis or the entire Pentateuch. Later Jewish Rabbinical literature tells us that he was the angel who taught Joseph the 70 languages needed to rule in Egypt, but this is not in the Genesis account.Gabriel is named numerous times in the Quran where he instructs the Prophet Muhamad. The Scriptures gives us no information concerning Gabriel’s relation to other angels and archangels, but in the Book of Enoch (Apocrypha), “the four great archangels, Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, and Phanuel,” are described as reporting the corrupt state of mankind to the Creator and receiving their several commissions.

Can we pray to angels?

• Catholic Christians pray to angels based on the Apocripha books


• Non-Catholic Christians believe that we can pray to no one but God


• For there is one God, one mediator also between God and humanity, himself man, Christ Jesus (1 Timothy 2:5).

One reason why praying to angels is wrong from a Biblical perspective is because Christ Himself never prayed to anyone but the Father. Also never in Scripture do we find any example of people praying to angels

Do we all have a guardian angel? It cannot be emphatically answered from Scripture whether or not each believer has a guardian angel assigned to him/her. But, as stated earlier, God does use angels in ministering to us. God sends angels “to serve those who will receive salvation.” Angels are subject to the God- man Jesus Christ, not to man. Do you want to receive the ministry of Angels? Acknowledge Jesus; Fear the Lord; Manifest brotherly love.

Angels are Ministering Spirits. It seems that people today are fascinated by the concept of angels, depicting them in everything from jewelry and Christmas decorations to movies and television programs. A poll conducted by Time magazine reported that 69 percent of American adults believed in the existence of angels, and 46 percent felt they had their own guardian angel. Also, 32 percent claimed to have felt an angelic presence at some time in their lives. In addition, a 2000 poll conducted by the Barna Research Group of Ventura, California, found that 81 percent of adults polled said they believed that "angels exist and influence people's lives."

“The Way” is mentioned several times in the book of Acts (Acts 9:2; 19:9, 23; 22:4; 24:14, 22) in connection with early followers of Christ. It was to take prisoner men and women who “belonged to the Way” (Acts 9:2; 22:4). Presumably, the early followers of Christ referred to themselves as followers of the Way because of Jesus’ statement in John 14:6 that He is “the way and the truth and the life.”
